Two movies that would have been weird without the 1911. Or the 9mm variants they used in wild bunch as .45s didn't cycle blanks that well then.
Carried one for years. After a while you find all the sharp edges.
I might be in the minority, but I love my 1911. It might jam occasionally, but it's still fun. And I still think it's one of the better looking pistols out there.
Totally not my bug out bag pistol, though.
I still own a few. But yeah, they have heen supplanted for anything serious by other gats. Gats made in Oberndorf.
Define serious. If it's low percentage shots at 50.... I'm grabbing my Ed Brown before my Glock.
First off, ed brown is a sexy pistol. I have shot high dolla TRPs and les baers but not one of those.
2nd, what i really should have said is that the 1911 is a system where you have spare parts, gats and ability to repair.
They're cool guns if you want to get into them. I've always loved them but also HKs. My favorite steel framed gat is the almighty FN hi-power.
